REFILLABLE
CONTAINER & REPACKAGING REQUIREMENTS
These requirements became
effective August 16, 2011. The refillable container & repackaging
requirement part of the rule states what
type of containers can be used for
refilling or repackaging different
pesticide products. The rule also states
that each Pesticide Registrant must
include language in their repackaging
contracts that clearly describes the
acceptable containers that are required
for refilling and for storing each of
their pesticide products.
This rule is an EPA rule and all
enforcement will be through the EPA.

4R Special Feature
The Fertilizer Institute (TFI), in
partnership with the Canadian Fertilizer
Institute (CFI), recently sponsored the
first article in what will be a five
part article series on the 4R nutrient
stewardship system. The article series
is being coordinated and coauthored by
the International Plant Nutrition
Institute (IPNI). The articles, which
are being published in the American
Society of Agronomy’s (ASA) Crops &
Soils magazine, are intended to provide
an in-depth look at the economic,
environmental and social benefits that
come as a result of producers
implementing the 4R nutrient stewardship
system, which refers to the use of the
right fertilizer product at the right
rate, right time and right place.
